Also, from your first mail I understood that the shift > there was by an amount not divisible by 4 - does that amount vary? The memory location of the second LOAD entry (the .data section) is wrong. It should be at 0x1c00000, but in fact its content starts at 0x1c0002c. I looked at the x86 boot code, the vmlinux is gzipped and placed as binary blob, which is then extracted by decompress(). I will cleanup my debug changes and post the output.
